LX3 wireless remote shutter control: Anyone have a suggestion?

Check out this site for a mechanical shutter release. http://kleptography.com/rf/#camera_lx3. I have only seen it, not bought anything, but it looks carefully done. An RF-activated solenoid hooked to the above ought to do the trick. I'd leave that part to the students.

Depends on the camera. If the camera has WiFi and communicates with a smartphone, use the smartphone app. If the camera has a cable shutter release, use that. If the camera only has an IR remote, that could be a problem. Otherwise, use the timer.

Here's the scoop: The Canon T3 does not have a built-in RECEIVER to act upon infrared or radio transmitted signals.If you want wireless shutter release, you have to buy a system having both TRANSMITTER and RECEIVER. The RECEIVER mounts on the T3's hotshoe, connecting it to the camera's innards. I'm awaiting my system : )

Be sure you have gone to the Function button, go to Drive Mode, scroll down to "Remote Cdr." and push the select button to engage the Wireless Remote. I have the Alpha 77 camera, but the NEX-5N may operate in a similar fashion. Also consult your manual for remote operation. Good luck.

Put your camera where you can change it from single shot to single and remote and as long as facing camera o.k. but too away from camera as far as angle the infrared will not see it and therefore not work. Simple item. Corded remote is a whole different situation Hope that helps. Elliot N. Herzel or e.herzel@yahoo.com.

I found this wireless product useless with the other Canon Rebel cameras I tried, so I wouldn't expect it to work with the T3. For some reason they pack no instructions with it, so the buttons are all just guesswork. But I did try every possibility. Buy a wired shutter release!

Hello, This kit didn't include any way to trigger the camera remotely. It might be possible with some other accessory, but I am not familiar with one.

I did not use any menus. Try this...Turn the camera offAttach the device using the cableImportant: Extend the antennae on the remote (I've had it not work right beside the camera until I pull out the antennae)Do a test with the piece attached to the camera. Hit the button on the front, if it takes a picture you know its connected OK.Then test from the remote.Hope this helps.

If you read manual on page 134 it shows how to use remote control. I guess the reason it wasn't advertised for K-x cause it was fairly new camera. You can buy one for around $5-$7.

I suggest you buy the RC-6 Wireless Controller, slightly better features. Always check with Canon on product capability issues to be sure. I use the RC-6 with my Canon 7D and love it. Follow this link to see a listing on Amazon.com Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote Controller for Canon XT/XTi, XSi, T1i and T2i Digital SLR Cameras Respectfully, Roland.

No. The FZ47 does not support a remote shutter. The best that you can do is set the timer.

I am not sure - do you have a setting for remote control in your menu? I have a NEX 5R and it works okay.

This camera takes an IR remote shutter control. http://www.amazon.com/Photive-Wireless-Shutter-Release-Replacement/dp/B005UFZ7F8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1382763571&sr=8-2&keywords=cannon+t3i+remote

I had a similar problem. I moved the camera closer to the wireless modem and the problem was solved. I believe the wireless range is very limited.

Yes, there is a remote (cable) shutter release, it's called the Fuji RR-90. I don't own one. Online, you can also find third part wireless models. Macro mode - I have the stock lens. The macro mode is good. I've been very happy with the camera, especially the styling.

the remote does go to sleep (switch off) after a few seconds which is really annoying and I can't find any option to stop that from happening. One way round it is to continually press the light button or keep the shutter release half pressed.

There's a setting in the cameras menu that indicates if the shutter can be released remotely. I suppose if you have that option this device can activate it.
